16. You Are Certainly Entitled To A Mistaken View, Sir

Apr 2020

My own attitudes towards 'honest graft' are quite lenient, but I charge few people with being corrupt, and find scolds and crusaders particularly offensive. Life is an organic thing, full of curves and waves and spirals. Scolds and crusaders seek to impose a crystalline form upon it, and sooner or later must commence whacking off or squeezing in the organic shapes that do not fit their mineral framework.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
